A Cooperative Model for Preserving Historical Television News Content by Morgan Gieringer
A Cooperative Model for Preserving Historical Television News Content By Morgan Gieringer ABSTRACT: The University of North Texas (UNT) and the Dallas-Fort Worth (Tex- as) affiliate station of the National Broadcasting Company (NBC 5/KXAS-TV) have partnered to preserve the archival programming content of the oldest television news station in Texas. This article addresses the partnership of the archives and the news sta- tion to create a fully digitally accessible archive, as well as the challenges of large-scale preservation and digitization of audiovisual materials. Using a custodial partnership model, the archives and the news station have leveraged their own unique talents and abilities to make significant progress toward the goal of digitizing this historic collec- tion. This article highlights the progress made over the first five years of the partner- ship and the aspects of the partnership that have made the project successful. Introduction The archival profession must begin to confront the many challenges inherent in the large-scale preservation of twentieth-century audiovisual resources. A significant portion of our shared cultural heritage, including historical television news recordings, is at risk due to complicated copyright issues, degradation of the original media, the cost involved in digitizing audiovisual resources, and the difficulty of preserving high- resolution digital video files. The NBC 5/KXAS-TV project highlights the extreme difficulties inherent in preserving twentieth-century television news content, but also demonstrates the cultural significance and importance of preserving this content for future generations. Unfortunately, a large amount of twentieth-century broadcast news content has already been lost, as television news reporters and production staff focus on the here and now, and yesterday’s news was only intended to be recorded and preserved for a short period of time. -

Matthews† The Rehnquist Choice: The Untold Story of the Nixon Appointment That Redefined the Supreme Court. By John Dean. The Free Press, 2001. 336 pages. $26.00. It is not often that one is afforded the chance to read a book about a sitting Chief Justice of the United States written by a convicted felon.1 I initially had high expectations of this text, as its author, John W. Dean III, was a central player in President Richard Nixon’s White House. At first glance, the book appears to be well researched, as Dean relied heavily on 420 hours of President Nixon’s White House Tapes, which were released on October 16, 2000.2 The text, however, does little more than dredge up old charges leveled against Chief Justice William Rehnquist. -
University of Florida Law Review
University of Florida Law Review VOLUME XXVIII WINTER 1976 NUMBER 2 LAW, CAPITALISM, AND THE FUTURE A. DEFINING THE ENTREPRENEUR: WEBER'S PROTESTANT ETIDC REFINED EDITOR'S NOTE: Departing from the usual style of a law review article, the following manuscript not only invites but requires extensive participation by the reader in analyzing the function of the law in relation to capitalism. The author adopts an unorthodox technique and weaves together seemingly un related ideas. For example. by interjecting a lengthy quote from a 1964 Supreme Court decision, the author bids the reader to determine whether the law can serve "as a successful control device" in the face of the increasing internationali zation of capitalism. Moreover, the web of ideas that the author spins does not suggest facile distinctions or conclusions. From the confusing and complex bombardment of ideas, analogies, and theories, the reader hopefully will dis cover perceptions worthy of the challenge. I The Inadequacies of Weber's Ideal Type (i) History is the story of what happened, and the most instructive explana tions - those most deserving of the historical title - are the ones that most satisfactorily account for the presence of the phenomenon whose behavior is being described. Historical explanations are therefore judged both in terms of how well they explain given instances of a phenomenon and how many such instances they explain. Why Weber's explanation of entrepreneurship was so satisfactory is a question for the social and intellectual histories of the times during which it has been accepted. This article offers an explanation for the generally accepted proposition that Weber's theory explains remarkably few of the known instances of entrepreneurship. -

Last issue’s discussion of the large market/small market issue ran so long that I’ve got six months of news updates to present...so on with the show! MLB News Luxury tax bills paid. After posting a 79-83 record with the majors’ highest payroll, the Baltimore Orioles were hit with a $3,138,621 luxury tax bill for the 1998 season. Other taxpayers included the Red Sox ($2,184,734), Yankees ($684,390), Braves ($495,625) and Dodgers ($49,593). The tax threshold, originally expected to reach $55 million in 1998, actually leaped to $70,501,185, including $5,576,415 per team in benefits. This figure represents the midpoint between the fifth- and sixth-highest payrolls. The luxury tax rate falls from 35% to 34% in 1999, then disappears entirely in 2000. Owners go 9-2 in arbitration. Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera of the Yankees were the only players to win their arbitration hearings, although 51 of the 62 cases settled before a ruling. -

That article “White House Health Secrets: How Historians View the Hidden Maladies of FDR and JFK,” by Joyce Latham, focused only on those two presidents. Personal Acknowledgments Many thanks to Thesis Committee members for reviews, contributions, and/or oversight: Dr. Marlana Portolano, Committee Chair; Dr. Karl Larew, Dr. Allaire Stallsmith, and Dr. Paul Miers, all of Towson University, and to Mr. Max Rose for help with fact checking. Special thanks to Dr. Portolano for giving her sabbatical time to coordinating this effort. iv Abstract Presidential Health Secrets: Reclaiming History’s Medical Unknowns Joyce E. Latham This thesis analyzes the role of illness in the administrations of three twentieth-century presidents—Woodrow Wilson, Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR), and John F. Kennedy (JFK)—who had serious health problems unknown to the mass media and the public in their respective eras. Some of that hidden information has been uncovered by historians and others. Wilson, for example, had a devastating stroke in October 1919, after which his wife and physician hid him in the White House, with the former functioning as an unofficial acting or co-president for many months. -
